We’re phasing out of an entire chapter of our history, simultaneously giving birth to a new one. What lies before us isn’t predetermined; it will be the result of our collective decision-making as we choose between increasing authoritarianism and a repaired and rebuilt democracy.

Is that what the Abolitionists said? Is that what the Suffragettes said? Is that what the Civil Rights workers said? They probably did say that at times actually but would then say something like this: “We have to hold each other up and do this for our great great grandchildren.”

Agree. But it gets more confusing when woke authoritarianism is mixed in with liberal-progressive initiatives, infecting the brew, pulling us in different directions, and supplying ammunition to the fascist right.

I don’t disagree. But other generations had serious and gnarly challenges as well. It’s our turn now.

We cannot escape from the consequences of our action. Our future is largely determined by what we do now.

Yes but in every one of those cases you actually had a half of Government that would go out and really fight We have one side that are just lost and another who do ONLY enough to placate the most moderate of their voters preferring Status quo and 'not rocking the boat' politics
